Bazaar Spices is the only shop in DC where you can find Georgian herbs and spices like blue fenugreek, adjika, and ground marigold. Join me there for a Georgian happy hour and cooking lesson on Thursday, May 12. I’ll show you how to make your own khinkali dumplings and prepare badrijani nigvzit (fried eggplant rolls with walnut-garlic filling). Enjoy a spread of Georgian appetizers, sip wines made from native grapes, listen to live folk music, and learn how to use Georgian herbs and spices to add depth and color to your own cooking, no matter what type of cuisine you’re making. You’ll take home a Georgian spice sampler and recipes to use them in your own kitchen.
